as much as i hate being drug tested

it’s needed to prevent people who have broken the rules 

the 2x european champion and 3x world medallist in triple jump has just been charged with using testosterone 😐

this is the third jumper i have competed with who has taken performance enhancing drugs sigh

hi im naomi i’m an athlete and creator!

same with the science of hackers lmao mercurial folks playing uncool

yeahh everyone gets tested but the science of dopers always seems to be a few steps ahead of the science of anti doping 😭

they come up with different ways to mask it or dodge tests and stuff

i thought they’d normally check before any event
how did she end up a champion with that

Sad to hear that. I don’t see anti doping testing to ever catch up with doping science. 

The truth is everyone benefits from the way the current setup is. Enough testing to keep the illusion of clean sports but also enough doping to keep breaking records. Perfect for the IOC, just bad for the honest athletes (of which I reckon there will be fewer and fewer)

true! i find it so sad

especially when i have missed out on the olympics by ONE place so when i find out  another athlete doped it breaks my heart a little bit more

the dopers are always a few steps ahead of the anti doping science hopefully the technology gets better

the third you know of.. PEDs are widespread in competitive sport. I know plenty who competed on an international level that took PEDs and never were tested positive.

one former athlete i know went from 4th place to olympic gold like 15 years later

what are the rules in a case like this? would they retro-actively revoke her medals ?

Yea i think the problem will be seen that it could encourage people who were not previously doping to start.

I’m not opposed to having a doped and a clean option though to give people a choice. Humans will always push the boundaries by nature and hopefully a doped version alongside could help prevent cheating at the regular Olympics.

Plus i think it will be pretty cool to see what science is truly capable of when people are free to experiment.

i think the people behind enhanced games can experiment if they want to

but it’s not true sport in my opinion its just an experiment

 clean sport is safer for humans too 

some dopers unfortunately die young

Have you heard about the Enhanced Games? What are your thoughts on it?

not every competition they do random tests and then post comp tests sometimes

Don’t they check before the competition?

no athlete is allowed to take testosterone and so many substances are completely banned 

here is the list of everything thats banned 



some athletes take supplements but they must be informed sport batch tested to make sure they do not contain banned substances 

so for instance i wouldnt buy a protein powder/drink from the supermarket unless it was informed sport

Ohhh
Understood

But man, i can really understand the urge to wanna take these boosters sometimes, there’s this pressure that comes with competing

Isn’t it normal to take boosts sometimes?
Or there’s a limit?

yup they test randomly and winning gold means money and they never seem to have to pay it back

why do they take drugs with they know they’re gonna be tested? 🙊🤷🏻‍♀️ or do they test randomly so athletes take the risk?

🤣 thats one way to look at it i only take matcha

The only way they can compete with you is by using testosterone,buddy🫡

They should just have a “doped” games. 

If you want to performance enhance you compete in that one with the others.

I have mixed feelings on some “legal” drugs as well. Simone Biles is a GOAT, but back of my mind it seems unfair she essentially gets to take amphetamines. These are hard issues without great answers.

i know right :( she was an amazing jumper and brought alot of joy to ukraine too 

part of me hopes its a mistake but i am alot more cynical now cos i see it over and over again

unfortunately... there are un-decent ppl out there...😕

When I see news like this I only wander what goes on in the brains of people they compete with and won against them and those looking up to such people before they got caught.

It’s always good to stay true to yourself 

I like that you do just that

It is sad that tests are needed to ensure people are doing things right 😔

dude  this is crazy!! we were talking about this at farcon too.. I'm so sorry there is untrustful people in your sector too :(

Tbh drugs to improve performance should be legal (and a requirement to participate in sports at top levels)
